Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tread rubber composition and a pneumatic tire.
  • wet grip performance has been desirable to provide good wet grip performance as a key tire property to ensure improved driving safety. It is generally known that wet grip performance may be improved by increasing the hysteresis loss of a tire tread rubber. To this end, it is well known to increase the tan ⁇ peak temperature of the tan ⁇ -temperature dependence curve of the rubber.
  • Patent Literature 1 JP 2006-056979 A
  • the present inventor has discovered as a result of many experiments that the method of increasing the tan ⁇ peak temperature of the rubber inevitably raises the brittleness temperature thereof and thus may cause the rubber to undergo brittle fracture to form cracks on the tread surface or groove bottom during storage of the tire, especially in winter.
  • the present invention aims to solve the problem and provide a tread rubber composition which provides a balanced improvement in wet grip performance and resistance to low-temperature brittleness, and a pneumatic tire including a tread at least partially containing the rubber composition.
  • the present inventor has done extensive research on the problem newly discovered by the inventor and found that a balanced improvement in wet grip performance and resistance to low-temperature brittleness can be achieved by adjusting the tan ⁇ peak temperature to a predetermined temperature or higher to enhance wet grip performance while adjusting the brittleness temperature to a predetermined temperature or lower to enhance resistance to low-temperature brittleness. This finding has led to the present invention.
  • the present invention relates to a tread rubber composition, containing a styrene-butadiene rubber and having a tan ⁇ peak temperature of -10°C or higher and a brittleness temperature of -40°C or lower.
  • the rubber composition preferably has a tan ⁇ peak temperature of -8°C or higher, more preferably -6°C or higher.
  • the rubber composition preferably has a brittleness temperature of -42°C or lower, more preferably -45°C or lower.
  • the rubber composition preferably contains, based on 100% by mass of a rubber component therein, 20 to 90% by mass of the styrene-butadiene rubber.
  • the rubber composition preferably contains at least one of a polybutadiene rubber or isoprene-based rubber.
  • Another aspect of the present invention relates to a pneumatic tire, including a tread at least partially containing the rubber composition.
  • the tread rubber composition of the present invention contains a styrene-butadiene rubber and has a tan ⁇ peak temperature of -10°C or higher and a brittleness temperature of -40°C or lower. This tread rubber composition provides a balanced improvement in wet grip performance and resistance to low-temperature brittleness.
  • the tread rubber composition of the present invention contains a styrene-butadiene rubber and has a tan ⁇ peak temperature of -10°C or higher and a brittleness temperature of -40°C or lower. With this tread rubber composition, it is possible to achieve a balanced improvement in wet grip performance and resistance to low-temperature brittleness.
  • a higher tan ⁇ peak temperature leads to better wet grip performance.
  • the brittleness temperature increases as well, possibly resulting in reduced resistance to low-temperature brittleness.
  • a lower brittleness temperature leads to better resistance to low-temperature brittleness.
  • the tan ⁇ peak temperature decreases as well, possibly resulting in reduced wet grip performance.
  • wet grip performance and resistance to low-temperature brittleness are in a trade-off relationship. Thus, it has been difficult to achieve a balanced improvement in both properties.
  • the present inventor has found that when a rubber composition containing a styrene-butadiene rubber is adjusted to have a predetermined tan ⁇ peak temperature or higher and a predetermined brittleness temperature or lower, the rubber composition provides a balanced improvement in wet grip performance and resistance to low-temperature brittleness.
  • the rubber composition when a rubber composition containing a styrene-butadiene rubber which has a high hysteresis loss and can increase the tan ⁇ peak temperature is adjusted to have tan ⁇ peak and brittleness temperatures each within a predetermined temperature range, the rubber composition more suitably achieves a balanced improvement in wet grip performance and resistance to low-temperature brittleness.
  • the tan ⁇ peak temperature and brittleness temperature are determined by analyzing the rubber composition after it is vulcanized.
  • the (vulcanized) rubber composition has a tan ⁇ peak temperature of -10°C or higher, preferably -8°C or higher, more preferably -6°C or higher.
  • the upper limit of the tan ⁇ peak temperature is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0°C or lower, more preferably -2°C or lower, still more preferably -4°C or lower, to obtain good resistance to low-temperature brittleness.
  • the tan ⁇ peak temperature is measured as described later in EXAMPLES.
  • tan ⁇ peak temperature refers to the temperature corresponding to the maximum tan ⁇ in a temperature dependence curve of tan ⁇ measured by viscoelastic testing.
  • the (vulcanized) rubber composition has a brittleness temperature of -40°C or lower, preferably -42°C or lower, more preferably -45°C or lower, still more preferably -50°C or lower, particularly preferably -55°C or lower.
  • the lower limit of the brittleness temperature is not particularly limited, but is preferably -65°C or higher, more preferably -60°C or higher, to obtain good wet grip performance.
  • brittleness temperature refers to the "50% brittleness temperature” determined in accordance with JIS K 6261-2:2017 “Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic - Determination of low-temperature properties - Part 2: Low-temperature brittleness”.
  • the tan ⁇ peak temperature and brittleness temperature of the rubber composition can be controlled by varying the types and amounts of chemicals, in particular rubber and resin components, used in the rubber composition. For example, incorporating a high softening point resin tends to increase the tan ⁇ peak temperature; incorporating a low glass transition temperature rubber component (e.g., polybutadiene rubber, isoprene-based rubbers) tends to reduce the brittleness temperature; increasing the amount of fillers tends to increase the brittleness temperature; using silica as a filler tends to increase the tan ⁇ peak temperature; and increasing the amount of softeners tends to reduce the brittleness temperature.
  • a high softening point resin tends to increase the tan ⁇ peak temperature
  • incorporating a low glass transition temperature rubber component e.g., polybutadiene rubber, isoprene-based rubbers
  • increasing the amount of fillers tends to increase the brittleness temperature
  • the specified tan ⁇ peak temperature and brittleness temperature can be imparted to the vulcanized rubber composition, for example, by appropriately selecting rubber and resin components as described later or appropriately adjusting their amounts.
  • the tan ⁇ peak temperature and brittleness temperature may be controlled by incorporating a high softening point resin to increase the tan ⁇ peak temperature, and at the same time incorporating a low glass transition temperature rubber component (e.g., polybutadiene rubber, isoprene-based rubbers) to prevent too high a brittleness temperature, while appropriately adjusting the amounts of both components (the high softening point resin and the low glass transition temperature rubber component) .
  • the tan ⁇ peak temperature and brittleness temperature may be more suitably controlled by appropriately adjusting the amounts of the high softening point resin, low glass transition temperature rubber component, and styrene-butadiene rubber.
